Abstract

Building on current approaches to gastrodiplomacy and expanding on them, this article will highlight (1) the anthropological and political dimensions of diplomacy and gastronomy, as well as their potential to explore, reflect on, and work on forms of coexistence and relationship with others. For this, it will analyse (2) the role of gastronomy in the affirmation of identities while promoting forms of coexistence and mediation of estrangement. Without contradicting the above but showing the antinomies and paradoxes revealed by the current political and economic system, this work will also try to (3) expose the way in which food has become a source of multiple inequalities within and between communities. Finally, (4) the concept of gastrology will be deepened to explore the potential of gastrodiplomacy as a tool, practice, and political logic through which to ‘mediate estrangement’, act in critical areas, labour the difference and think and make the way we want to live in it.
